Ah it's that time of year again! It's beginnig to look a lot like Christmas (there's a song in there somewhere) You folks in the Northern lands have snow on the ground to tell you that Christmas time is almost here. In the South we gauge how close Christmas is by how many storage trailers are stacked up behind our local Wal-Mart. This is also the time of year that many of us start singing some of the Christmas carols we learned in our youth. I'm talkin the really good ones, not the goody two shoes versions that we had to learn in school. One that comes to mind is the old favorite from the time when Alvin and Theodore were making their presence known:

Chipmunks roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost picking at his nose
Santa came down the wrong chimmeny again
That's the way shit goes....

Do any others come to mind? Share them with us all in the spirit of the season...

And my dad always sang something that went "Hark the herald angels sing, Beecham's pills are just the thing! One for man and two for child, oh, they work so meek and mild." (I don't recall that it went beyond that point, and it's not all that exciting as it stands but may have possibilities as a base on which to build.) He was a Baptist minister whose musical career began as a high-school student at church camp singing a falsetto "Bird in a Gilded Cage".

See recent thread on Tom Lehrer for link to his Xmas outrage.

Hi Liland the pone you are probablt thinking of is one I learned at school but not from the teachers

Hark the herald angels sing
Beechams pills are just the thing
Move ye gently meek and mild
Two for an adult one for a child
Regular administration
just the thing for constipation
How can man to are aspire
When his soul is not on fire
How can man to atr aspire
when his hole is not on fire

To my mind the best Christmas parody of all time is Frank Kelly's ( Father Jack of Fr.Ted fame) parody on the Twelve Days of Christmas called I think, Christmas Countdown. It actually topped the charts in Ireland on its first release and also charted on subsequent releases. I don't know if its still available but if it is,get and listen, its probably one of the funniest parodies ever put on vinyl. Mariner

SANTA IS RETIRING

They passed a law at Yule Tide
You have to stop work at 65
So Santa is retiring this year
He tried to hang on but what could he do
Someone found out he's 402
So Santa is retiring this year

The women's groups were saying
That he should be a her
Animal rights groups say his suit
Should not be trimmed with fur

It ain't fair, it ain't right
To fire a guy cause his hair is white
But Santa is retiring this year
I guess he'll live Sure he'll be O.K.
Red's not his colour anyway
So Santa is retiring this year

They won't give him a pension
It's makes you want to cry
They say he only worked one day
So he doesn't qualify

Of all the cut-backs it's the last straw
They're down sizing Santa Claus
Santa is retiring this year
In the future I guess we'll
All have to sit on Jean Chretien's knee

Cause Santa is retiring and they won't be rehiring
In Canada itself where they're cutting back on elf-care
Santa is retiring this year

To the tune of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

Here in Seattle we just got through the anniversary of our WTO uproar with a minimum of renewed violence, and the pastor (I'm posting from the church computer, we're Hanging the Greens today) who is a Bush Republican type was just singing snatches (all he knows) of a "Silver Bells" parody that includes the line "it's rioting time in the city". He says it dates from last year. Anybody know the whole thing?

Here's one for all you Unitarians.
GOD REST YE UNITARIANS

God rest ye Unitarians, let nothing you dismay,
Remember there's no evidence there was a Christmas Day,
When Christ was born just is not known, no matter what men say.

Glad tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact,
Glad tidings of reason and fact.

There was no star of Bethlehem, there was no angel song,
There could have been no wisemen for the journey was too long,
The stories in the Bible are historically wrong.

Glad tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact,
Glad tidings of reason and fact.

Much of our Christmas custom comes from Persia and from Greece,
From solstice celebrations of the ancient middle east,
We know our so-called holiday is but a pagan feast.

Glad tidings of reason and fact, reason and fact,
Glad tidings of reason and fact.

Cheers, S. in Seattle

G'day all,
We used to sing this here in Oz when I was a fair bit younger:
While shepherds washed their socks by night
All seated on the ground
A bar of Sunlight soap
And bubbles floated round
My kids had one to "Deck the Halls" too, but I can't remember it all - something to do with burning the school down!

WALKING 'ROUND IN WOMEN'S UNDERWEAR
(Tune: Walking In a Winter Wonderland)

Lacy things the wife is missin'
Didn't ask for her permission
I'm wearin' her clothes, silk pantyhose
Walkin' round in woman's underwear

In the store there's a teddy
With little straps like spagetti
It hold me in tight, like handcuffs at night
Walkin' round in woman's underwear

In the office there's a guy named Melvin
He pretends that I am Murphy Brown
He'll say are you ready, I'll say whoa man
Let's wait until the wife is out of town

Later on if you wanna
We can dress like Madonna
Put on some eyeshade and join the parade
Walkin' round in woman's underwear
Walkin' round in woman's underwear
Walkin' round in woman's underwear

----A personal favorite.

If my HTML works right this should show up as verse and chorus. Otherwise please use the imagination and sort it out.

CHRISTMAS IN VIETNAM
Jungle Bells

Dashing through the mud, in a Jeep that should be junk,
O'er the roads we go, half of us are drunk.
Wheels on dirt roads bounce, making asses sore,
Lord I'd sooner go to hell than finish out this tour.

CHORUS: Jungle bells, mortar shells, VC in the grass,
We'll get no Merry Christmas cheer until this year has passed,
Jungle bells, mortar shells, VC in the grass,
Take your Merry Christmas cheer and shove it up your ass.

Christmas time is here, as everybody knows,
People think it's dear, GI's think it blows,
All at home are gay, children are at play,
While we are stuck out here, so very far away. CHORUS

The moral of this song, it's plain as it can be,
Please no midnight carols sing and screw your Christmas tree.
There's one thing left to say, before we have to leave,
Vietnam is not the place, to be on Christmas eve. CHORUS

Here's my favourite:
THE CHRISTMAS FOOD HYGIENE CAROL
©John Stothard and lan Clarke 1987

Good King Wenceslas looked out on the feast of Steven
Ever since he's been in bed with his insides heaving
He didn't cook his turkey right, he let the bugs keep growing
It didn't cook right through you see, and now it's got him go-o-oing

God rest you merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay,
Though some of you may well be ill soon after Christmas day.
If you don't thaw your meat right out, the bugs will make you pay,
Oh Ignore our warnings if you dare, if you dare,
Oh, ignore our warnings if you dare.

On the worst day of Christmas my true love gave to me
Food Poisoning, a dose of trots, pains in the tum
A very sore head,
And a week in the infirmary.

Dashing through the snow, rushing to the loo
Through the house we go, heaving all the way
It really isn't fair, if only we had known
If the trifle had been in the fridge, the bugs would not have grown.
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh how cruel it is to have the runs on Christmas day
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Use the fridge to keep food cool, stay safe on Christmas day

When you cook your Christmas fare, please follow the instructions
If you don't you may end up with terrible constrictions
May we remind you one and all that care with food is vital
Ignore our warnings if you will, the danger's intestinal.

Take heed and have an excellent festive season!

A little ditty I whipped up in honor of the Christmas feast. Sung to the tune of Oh Come All Ye Faithful-

OH COME GET A FACE-FULL

Oh come get a face-full.
Christmas dinner's ready.
Oh come eat, oh come eat, the turkey is done.
Potatoes and dressing, all smothered with gravy.
Eggnog and Christmas cookies,
pumpkin pie with whipped cream,
eat until your pants scream,
too tiiiiight, no more!

At the feast I'd eaten


P.S. I see there are some other folks from Seattle posting to this thread. Liland, are you at Fremont Baptist? I spend my days a couple of blocks over at Dusty Strings. Small world, huh? Reggie, is that you? Bluesman, formerly of Strangers With Candy? Stewart, I liked the Unitarian song -- it reminds me of the old joke that says the only time God gets mentioned in the Unitarian church is when the janitor accidently kicks the mop bucket over.

All seated round the tub
The angel of the Lord came down

Right through Woolworth's window.
Up came a copper with a rusty gun
"Right, you beggar, I'll make you run"

My brother in law, then a military nurse with the RAMC, along with some "friends" once dressed an anatomy model up as Santa, stuck it in a wheelchair and wheeled it round the German hospital they were working in at the time, singing carols. When they got to the Psychiatric ward they sang 'God rest ye, Jerry Mentalmen'.... needless to say they were on guard duty all over Christmas....

Liland: Some of it is. Here's more.

This is my least expertise but I wanted to post in time for any who wish to refresh themselves on the simple text in time for any Christmas show they may perform.

I think it's time to post America's favorite - perhaps the entire English-speaking world and Australia's favorite Christmas song. This was thoroughly researched by several Members of rec.music.folk to get definitive. There were several emendations and popular renditions have, of course, been subject to much variation through the Folk Process. This is the most widely available version:

(My ex-ex-ex-brother-in-law, Charlie from Boston's favorite song, for some reason.)
 

Deck us all with Boston Charlie,
Walla Walla, Wash., an' Kalamazoo!
Nora's freezin' on the trolley,
Swaller dollar cauliflower alley'garoo!

Don't we know archaic barrel,
Lullaby lilla boy, Louisville Lou?
Trolly Molly don't love Harold,
Boola boola Pensacoola hullabaloo!

Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Polly wolly cracker n' too-da-loo!
Donkey Bonny brays a carol,
Antelope Cantaloupe, 'lope with you!

Hunky Dory's pop is lolly gaggin' on the wagon,
Willy, folly go through!
Chollie's collie barks at Barrow,
Harum scarum five alarum bung-a-loo!

Deck us all in bowls of barley,
Hinky dinky dink an' polly voo!
Chilly Filly's name is Chollie,
Chollie Filly's jolly chilly view halloo!

Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Double-bubble, toyland trouble! Woof, Woof, Woof!
Tizzy seas on melon collie!
Dibble-dabble, scribble-scrabble! Goof, Goof, Goof!

Silent knight, unconscious knight,
On the ground, lost the fight.
Mighty backhand from a broad sword.
Wielded by a white belted lord.
Sleep in heavenly peace. . .

Or. . .

We came upon a midnight clear and battered down the gates.
We stormed the halls and climbed the walls and broke up all the plates.
We burned the tapestries, beds, and chairs until we'd burned them all.
And when we'd burned all else in sight, we went and burned down the hall!

My family has been singing "Deck Us All with Boston Charlie" for years, but my wife insists there is yet another Pogo carol " Good King Sauerkraut", but she can't recall the lyrics, if there were any. I say it was an extended dialouge between Albert, Churchy and Pogo about why good king Sauerkraut didn't invite the guy in from the cold, or give him some turkey, or something besides walk around with him in the snow, picking up sticks. YOu do that with the homeless people where I used to live, you might get your lights punched out. Anyway, does anyone know it? My kids always favored Alan Sherman's "Twelve Days of Christmas."

Boris, the blue balled reindeer

You would say it really showed!
All of the other reindeer

Then one starlit Christmas Eve

Assuming the "Frosty the Snowman' you're looking for is the regular one:

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN
Words and Music by Steve Nelson and Jack Rollins

Frosty the snowman
Was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe
And a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman
Is a fairy tale they say
He was made of snow
But the children know
How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
O Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say
He could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me

Thumpetty thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow

Frosty the snowman knew
The sun was hot that day
So he said
"Let's run and
We'll have some fun
Now before I melt away"

Down to the village
With a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all
Around the square saying
Catch me if you can
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler "Stop!"

For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying
"Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day"

Thumpetty thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go
Thumpetty thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the hills of snow
